October is Window Covering Safety Month. Sheila's Window Toppers would like to help educate parents and pet owners about the importance of cordless window coverings and options available that promote safety.

Many styles of standard corded window coverings pose a tempting hazard to infants and pets who view dangling cards as playthings. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, at least one child dies from window cord strangulation every month, while other children suffer from near strangulation. Standard cords are a serious danger that cause injury to small children and pets. People need to understand that there are other options when purchasing window coverings.

In this effort Sheila’s Window Toppers is providing a free cordless upgrade option on certain blinds and shades for the month of October. If a parent or pet owner would like to ensure safety in their homes, now is the time to upgrade your window coverings.

For those looking to purchase new blinds and make their home safer, Sheila’s Window Toppers is offering free cordless upgrades on select blind products. These cordless blinds and shades are easy to lift by simply pushing the shade up from the bottom rail. Cordless shades offer an elegant look and eliminate dangerous long dangling cords. You can learn more about these Blinds by visiting our Crowfoot Showroom and asking about the free promotion.

Window Covering Safety Month gives us the opportunity to join with others in our industry, like the Window Covering Safety Council, to promote window covering safety.

This product is the perfect purchase when your need the most from your design dollar. But the great thing is that you don't have to lower your expectations and certainly don't have to get a lesser product. This shade is...Style. Simplified.

From
first light to movie night: continuous, creative control can now
rests in your hands. Far more than a remote, the smart technology of the
Platinum™
App
enables you to preset and reset the precise position of multiple window
coverings for optimal privacy, security, energy management and mood. Moreover,
customized slider bars for each Platinum App Certified window covering make
programming slide-to-set simple.

With the new, easy-to-use Platinum™ App, you can operate your
PowerRise® 2.1 and PowerGlide® 2.1 motorized window coverings using your iPad®,
iPhone® or iPod touch®. More than a dozen HunterDouglas window fashion styles
feature the fresh, customized technology, opening new vistas for optimizing the
home environment.

This is creative
control like never before.

For the first time, customers can design the
ambient effect they desire by:

Scene

A simple touch of the “Good Morning”
scene could raise the shades in the kitchen and living room, letting in just
the right amount of light for a warming wake-up. Tapping “Good Night” might lower
all shades in the home for maximum privacy and security.

Room

Use the slider bar to close all the
window coverings in the “Master Bedroom” and get a restful night’s sleep.

Time of
Day

Like clockwork, individual and group window coverings can be precisely
positioned for security, energy efficiency and personal preference. The
Platinum™ App’s timer can
automatically set and reset the scene, even when the mobile device is not in
the home.

The customized
slider-bar simplifies set up.

Customers will appreciate the simplicity of setting up the
Platinum App. A customized slider control will appear after selecting a
specific shade type from the album view. Personalize the way you name your
shades and never move the wrong one again!

The Platinum system
is comprised of sleek, discreet components.

The Platinum App Bridge is the heart of the system. It stores your
programmed data and sends signals to operate window fashions via Platinum Repeaters.
Platinum Repeaters simply plug into a wall outlet and extend the range of the
signal throughout your home. It’s recommended to have at least one repeater in
each room where a motorized window fashion is located.

Each year brings new goals, new
movies, new purchases, new families… and new colors. For 2014, Pantone’s color of
the year is… Radiant Orchid! It’s a beautiful member of the purple family. With
a harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, it brings a bright and unique
hue to this year’s trending color palette. Described as “an invitation to
innovation,” it is already appearing in styles by Gucci and on Michelle Obama.
The color will be greatly integrated into fashion, beauty, and interiors this
year. Launching as a Spring color, its ability to mix with chocolate browns and
deep greens forecasts its translation into the Fall 2014 color spectrum as
well.

Radiant Orchid for Interiors

In the window fashions industry, we are the staples of interior design and ambassadors of home style and innovation. We perfect the art of window dressing through not only inventive lifting systems, but through modern fabrics and colors. It is important to know how to use new color for contemporary clients and creative product lines. Radiant Orchid is both obvious and adaptable. Uplifting and bold without being overpowering, it reenergizes almost any color scheme and provides a unifying element for diverse spaces. It complements olive and deeper hunter greens, and offers a gorgeous combination when paired with turquoise, teal and even light yellows. Likewise, the vibrant color livens up neutrals including gray, beige and taupe.

﻿

While window treatments are an accessory in a room, they are a powerful focus. Shades can be used as the accent color or come in a neutral shade to compliment a brightly painted wall. Each piece in the room, whether it a couch or vase, must coordinate with this palette. Hunter Douglas offers a sophisticated line of window shades that help add class and style to any room. Try Silhouette® window shadings in white against a vivid paint colored wall.

Big, Bold & Beautiful Patterns!Think of wallpaper as a large piece of art
and add it to one wall in your space as an accent. This is one of the most
popular ways people are using wallpaper now.Use a bold pattern or color, and it becomes the focus of the room.

As a twist on a traditional wall with
molding that creates a paneled effect, just add the wallpaper inside of the
panels.

Wallpaper can also be displayed as a piece
of art.With so many beautiful patterns
to select from, hang a square of wallpaper on your wall and then frame it with
a molding. Wallpaper murals are also available and a popular choice.

Wallpaper isn’t just for walls. Add
texture, glimmer and shimmer to your ceiling by applying wallpaper for
unexpected twist.

A
decor trend that is back in style is textured paper. It offers a fabulous
background and it can really cozy up a room. You can purchase organic, natural
materials such as grasscloth, some are even available with a shimmer for a more
upscale look. Wallpaper with flocking can add interest and give a
multidimensional look.
